This car just keeps getting better :D

I'm about to hit 600 miles. and damn does it feel a lot better. It feels like it's broken in now. I've been getting on it a little more and it feels sooooo much better. Way faster than before. Not to mention my gas mileage is already getting better

[SpeedRacer]

i dont know ever since i did my exhaust and intake it seems like my gas mileage is worst but i dont think it should be maybe it is from all that extra revving it just sound so good i cant help but to rev her

I noticed a dramatic increase in power as my mileage increased. I'm at a little over 7000km now, and I hope it keeps getting better! Although I doubt it will now.

ouch. that's no good. how long have you been driving stick?

i found this tranny to be rather easy to shift from the factory. And it has the triple cone synchros, so you have to be a real hamfist to fuck those up.

i've got 5200 miles on my car, and it shifts smoother than any other honda I've ever driven.

You will notice a gas milage drop when installing a CAI. You engine has to use more gas since you are adding more air.

man.. my baby is getting older :o(.. i already have 4200 miles on mine.. it's been not even 3 months old yet... and yeah.. i think adding my CAI, my mpg has gone down cuz i've been pushing it like crazy :p

thanks for the feedback kids.:)

It will clear up, im at 7,500K and mine just started feeling like butter, i know what you mean, kinda crunches into gear, it will go away..something i did, i dont know if it help, for all i know it didnt do anything, but when sitting at a light, with you foot on the clutch, just switch gears sitting still, just make sure your in 1st when your ready to go....

I have, I went up to 7200 rpm... so much for that 6800 redline :D

I've already hit the rev limiter more times than I can count. It's hard breaking old habits.
